EOTD Green: Breath of Spring

TKB's Breath of Spring 1 layer wet, second dry, blended upwards with Sparkle, EDM's Sandy Fair as foundation and under the brows. Forgot to use Pearl Sunlight under the eyes.

NB! These pics are made 8 hrs after application.

Here's another green:

The dark color in my hair is turning redder every week. Colleagues tell me I look too alien wearing such bright green - will go back to my browns from now on.
This look is the same as above with the difference of Green Apple in the crease and Lemon Drop above that.
Do apologize for the bad quality of the pic.

Ms E's swatches of her EDM haul

Now I have to do handle some backlog: Ms E sent me her swatches she made of her EDM collection and gave me her kind permission to upload them here. I kinda assume that the swatches are made in the same sequence that they are listed on the paper.

Ecotoolsid saada


Võtsin Mikidemaalt kaasa 2 Ecotoolsi setti, kui keegi soovib (kribi liisk at hotmail punkt com), 200ga annab ära (teenin veidi vahelt ka :P). Postiga ei saada. Kes ees see mees, paremad on nad igal juhul kui Cailap'i saast meie poodides kuid MACi vastu siiski ei saa.
:)
Eriti hea on viltune lainer. Silmapintslitega on võimalik mineraallauvärve niiskelt peale kanda - kuna pintsid on sünteetiliste karvadega, elavad nad selle ilusti üle.
Ripsmekamm/kulmuhari mulle eriti ei meeldi - seda oleks veel üks üksik ka saada kui soovi, tasuta.

Siit internetipoest saab muidu odavamalt kui ise tellida, neil on free shipping on orders over 20 USD, internationally :D.

Parandus : kui 10.12.2009 uuesti vaatama läksin, oli free int. ship juba 40ne peal.


Both sets have found new owners :).

Mõlemad pintslikomplektid on edukalt uued omanikud leidnud.

Intermission

Been in south for a while now - skin is peeling off on the cheeks. I look like a bloody raccoon because of the sunglasses, skin around the eyes is still flawlessly white.
I tell you - LA sun beats the hell out of MMU. Get some proper sunscreen of SPF 50 if you can get it. The downside is they stick all sorts of nasty goo in those sunscreens... petrochemicals topped up with assorted preservatives. They get you coming and going... the icky feeling of vaseline on my face - eeeeeeek.

Btw - LA is not as hot as I imagined. San Francisco was cold and windy as hell but the Sun is powerful enough to burn you through the windshield.

Cali is GREAT. Everything is blooming. And I mean everything.... from succulents to trees, jacarandas are just coming in bloom. Hills, mountains, ocean... a wonderful place. Reminds me alot of the Mediterranean. Mexican food is a genuine disappointment (potatoes, beans, greasy meat.... eeeeek) but Vietnamese pho and Thai fresh springrolls were ok.

EOTD browns

Am going away for a while but here's the last couple of days' worth of EOTDs:

The first one was random pick of 4 colors from the Archetype's box (over 50 samples there) and the colors do not match perfectly, but they are OK, I guess. One point of the blog being an information source on how different colors look on different folks in different lighting, I'll post them anyway:

On the lids all Archetype:
Dungeon all over lid
Corpse Candle in the outer V
Little Gray Kitten to blend the crease
Kitten Toes as blush (almost invisible)

first 3 indoors during the day, last one in evening sun
Then second patch is a try at colors that seemingly do not go well together: TKB's Moonstone (subtle brown - all over lid) and Breath of Spring (light green - blending the crease) - look actually quite nice together. Simply Naturals' Cafe Satin is the liner, wet.

I am standing right next to the window when taking pics and the TiO2 in the foundi is shining like there's no tomorrow. Sorry about that.

I
LOVE
MMU
- ideal for the fair maidens - makes me absolutely positively glow.
Just wish it would not dry out my skin.
Need to buy really expensive moisturizers... :S
